I have found some old water pipe which just fits inside the broken pipe, what if I cut off 6 inches off it, smear it with araldite, and hammer it in?

Or PTFE tape? (its not threaded)

Or Fernox Jointing compound which I have a small tin of?

I did have two spanners when undoing the pipe but i must have done it wrong...

Is it mendable ? How ?

If the fitting is brass and the tank copper how are they joined?

Got visitors coming on Saturday...
